Use this to support whatever your position is on Sean

I hope Taylor knows how pissed people will be if we hire Sean.

Sure, "we" will be pissed, but remember. KSU has a lot more dumbass fans than non dumbass fans. There is a large segment that want Sean to be the next coach. Those fans would rather be terrible at basketball than have a coach that cursed on the sidelines. My hope is that this is at least embarrassing enough for some of the more important dumbasses to not be such dumbasses.

lolwut? I know hundreds of fans and only a few "wanted" Sean, and that was only after K-State finished strong last year and they thought he could keep the program where it was. Now, I don't think I know a single person that would say Sean is their #1 choice.

Some people on this board have a bad habit of assuming that other k-state fans are incredibly stupid or naive.  They do this because of oscar, but forget that a good portion of our fanbase doesn't give a crap about basketball.

I'm so sick of Snyder 2.0 ball I could barf. If this means our future is with Sean, I quit kstate sports until proven wrong.

[#LIFE]

And why we are stuck with #Bruce4eva. "oh no we might hire someone that is worse than the bottom half of the conference every year!". I have 0 faith in our athletic department to do anything right at this point, regardless of who is running it. K-State sports is a complete shitshow and we seem happy just to be in a P5 conference. AFAIC we can just drop athletics altogether here, we're never going to amount to crap in anything ever again anyways.

I stand behind my earlier post

Yep.

Well, people also do it because an awful lot of people care about football and think Snyder and his tree are the only ones who hold the "secret sauce" necessary to win at KSU.

this doesnt and shouldnt surprise anyone. he is a control freak and its not the first time he has put himself in front of whats best for the university. hell we would have had vanier 2.0 10 years ago if it wsnt for snyder and the construction "affecting his day to day"

You know to be honest, I don't give two shits about basketball.  We were a shity BB school for way to long.  Thank god football brought us out of the hellhole that the crappy birds to the east had us trapped in.  Look at how shitty they have become.  I don't want us to be in the  same shithole as KU football.  So plz. AD don't eff this up. 

P.S.  The football fanatics are all calling for Dimel's head and a change in coaching.

The problem with most kstate fans is the blind faith that they have in their leaders. We are not a group that likes to question.

as a whole, I think I'm ready to pull a Pete. kstate sports (like most things) are fun until they aren't and kstate sports haven't been fun for a few years now. i'll check out the recaps and stuff moving forward, but it's going to take something major in a sport to get me to care again. I just can't even seem to care that much about this mess of a mess.

You know what would be FUN? Bret Bielema!!!

Part of me believes this to be true, but the fallout that I'm seeing on the internet and Facebook from this is not positive at all. At the moment, it doesn't look like their are a lot of people who want Sean to take over.

Don't understand the Bill Self and LHC Bill Snyder comparisons

from our guy d scott:

A report earlier Thursday stated that Jim Leavitt had a verbal agreement last year to become Kansas State’s head coach-in-waiting and assume head coaching duties in 2018.

Leavitt, the current Oregon defensive coordinator and one-time Snyder assistant coach tells GoPowercat.com that “I have no desire nor I ever had had a desire to be a coach in waiting.”

Leavitt made a statement to GoPowercat.com hours after a Facebook post by former ESPN writer Brett McMurphy went live Thursday morning, with details creating a stir among a K-State fan base after a source told McMurphy that top school officials, including K-State President Richard Myers, along with top boosters were all for Leavitt joining the K-State coaching staff in 2017 with plans to slide into the head coach position after the season.

The plan, according to the report, was nixed by K-State head coach LHC Bill Snyder because he wanted his son Sean, the team’s associate head coach and special teams coordinator, to serve as his replacement.

“I have no desire nor I ever have had a desire to be coach in waiting,” Leavitt said in a message. “I always have been and always will be Coach Snyder’s number one fan. If Coach ever retires, which may not be for some time, I would want whatever is best for KSU and the people of Kansas. Hopefully sometime soon I will have the opportunity to be a head coach again. For now my only concern is to help build our defense at Oregon.”

The 78-year-old Snyder has made no public announcement about a possible retirement, although he has publicly endorsed Sean as a possible successor on a few occasions in recent years.

Leavitt served under Snyder between 1990 and 1995 and spent the final four seasons at K-State as co-defensive coordinator with Bob Stoops.

it's possible Brett McMurphy was CLOSE to knowing the full/correct story but i've heard something slightly different and way more dramatic.
